never seen anything, but i have heard some pretty hard to explain noises. we were camping at kentucky lake and our spot was right by the water. it was maybe 11pm and we were chilling by the fire when we heard the sound of rocks hitting other rocks coming from the shore opposite us(we were on like a maybe 200yd wide strip of the lake with open water to the left of us). it was unmistakably the sound of a big heavy rock impacting another big rock. there were no campsites in that area and no flashlights or anything. we just kind of laughed it off at the time, but its stuck with me in the back of my mind.

I don't know what to think about this guy, his vids are pretty out there, seems sincere but nutty as fuck, but I guess you'd sound pretty nutty trying to convince people the stuff he claims happened actually happened.

No, but I saw a literal monkey swinging around in the trees while backpacking a few years back. One of the cute smaller types. I live in rural British Columbia. There aren't supposed to be any monkeys here.

>>1034960
wasn't skwuatch, was walker

>>1034781
Amazing how he hasn't been spotted in the age of 4k

I've never seen a 'squatch, but 10 or 15 years ago a tiny reserve 20 minutes down the road claimed a sasquatch with white hair was raising hell in the rez. Personally, I don't believe them because they all have guns and at least one of them would have been drunk enough to shoot it.

I don't discount cryptids entirely, though. You hear about a lot of weirder shit in rural communities.

>>1035032
holy shit, seriously?

How to convince people that bigfoot exists:

1. Buy a camera with half-decent auto-focus
2. Take a picture (in focus!)
3. Post the picture

If you really want to convince the skeptics, you could even take more than 1 in-focus picture, or better yet, find someone else to take their own in-focus picture.

Yeah, dead serious. Conditions were good and it was clear as day. He was fairly close to my camp and I stared at him for a good few minutes. Looked just like "Marcel" from Friends.

>>1035201
Oddly enough, I was actually very close to Manning Park when this happened. I was camping south east of Manning near the American border. Nearest town being Princeton.

I figure the ONLY explanation is that someone's pet escaped and had traveled for a few days to get there.

Yes, crown land. I avoid parks and established trails due to the heavy use.

Access to this region is via old forestry roads coming west out of Keremeos. They are mostly decommissioned. 4x4 is absolutely required and these trails are not stock friendly. I take my truck as far as I can go, and then head out on foot. During my encounter I was scouting for potential hunting locations and I was about a day's hike in following a small river / creek. There are no man made hiking trails in the area and it is unused land as far as I can tell.

No idea where the monkey came from. Locals suggested it may have been a possum, but I got a good look at it. Definitely a monkey. Long arms and hanging from branches. Cute face.

Fossils are a pretty weird thing tho. For instance, the fossil record for gorillas is about 9 teeth, and a single jaw bone for chimps. Apes seem to leave a dramatically smaller biological footprint than other animals for whatever reason. I forget exactly what number it was, but it's something like one fossil for every 250,000 individuals for normal animals, so we're looking at a much bigger number for apes.

Interesting anon. I got in touch with my friend yesterday, he said that he had pulled over to take a pee and water break and saw it just as he was about to depart again. Definitely something to look for, if it even survived

Canadian Monkey anon reminds me that a few years back there was another anon that found and got pics of a capuchin monkey partway up a fir tree in the Olympic Peninsula.

The speculation was that someone had bought a cute baby monkey as a pet and then dumped it once grew into its hell-beast adult form.

>>1036043
Most apes live in the tropics. Things don't fossilize well in much of the tropics because heat and humidity lead to high rates of decay. Contrast forest-dwelling primates with primates that occupy drier spots or more northern latitudes and all of a sudden there's a long fossil record.

The best conditions for fossilization are areas where a dead body can be quickly covered by mud, sand, or ash. That's why fossil-rich regions tend to be areas like the shores of ancient seas, places on the lee side of old mountain ranges, and near extinct volcanoes.

Stuff that lives and dies in tropical forests is just going to rot or get scavenged.

>>1034781

I have spent my entire adult life working in the deep woods of the PNW

Never ever did I see, smell or hear anything that would even remotely suggest any possible evidence of a "Bigfoot" type of creature.

>>1036300
Fair point, but is this not also true of northern forests Forest dwelling animals decompose at an amazing rate in my experience, being as forests tend to be fairly dark, damp environments with high numbers of scavenger animals and fungus. Basically the only bones I tend to find while /out/ are from deer. Never found bones from a bear or anything.

>>1036324

>>1036300
I understand what you are saying but technically the tropics refers to anything within the tropics of cancer on both sides of the Equator. There are plenty of very arid regions within the tropics.

I work in the woods and I've seen bears standing on their hind legs, people wearing dark clothes off trail, and stumpsquatches where I went "holy shit it's a Bigfo..oh wait". I've smelled skunk cabbage and forest debris composting where I went "holy shit it's a Bigfo..oh wait". I've heard wolves make the "Bigfoot ohio howl", I've heard bears make "ooh ooh ooh" sounds (see Les Straud). I've heard ravens and Great Blue Heron make all kinds of weird noises. I've heard beaver slap their tails on ponds (wood knocks) and I've also heard trees fall. I've heard spruce trees make real loud cracking noises which is caused by sap freezing and contracting and in most of those cases I went "holy shit it's a Bigfo..oh wait"

You sir have never been in the woods.

That is true most likely true, certainly after so many years of myths and legend someone would have found physical evidence if they existed. I agree that some species can be very elusive, but not even a single bone ? That's extremely unlikely.

Also keep in mind that they would require a certain population in order to reproduce and survive.

>>1036471

Skinwalkers are a completely fictional critter based on its abilities. Definitely Indian mumbo jumbo.

Bigfoot at least has some semblance of reality to its biology.

>>1036482
>but not even a single bone ? That's extremely unlikely.

If they inhabit forests, I wouldn't expect bones to be found or they're misidentified. The woods eat everything up in short order.

Sightings would be your most likely evidence.

A lack of hard video footage is what points to their likely non-existence.

More and more I feel like if Bigfoot is real then he's probably not a real animal. In a completely bizarre way it makes more sense for him to be an ET or some kind of supernatural creature than for me to believe he's an unidentified primate in North America.

>>1036418
didn't say i never heard or saw "anything"
I just said i never saw or heard anything that made me think "bigfoot"

there's a difference.

Of course I've seen, smelled and heard all kinds of shit in the woods. all manner of natural and known species of animal, bird, fish, tree, stump and plant.

fuck that should have been obvious from my post.

Yes I've seen many interesting and sometimes odd or surprising things. but i'm used to it all and not so easily spooked or superstitious as you seem to be

>>1036393

Done it all at one time or another. they end up being somewhat related occupations after awhile since it all falls under forest & natural resource management.

Seen lots of shit. too many things to even start listing here. suffice it to say. i can only repeat that of all the things i experienced, none of them made me think "bigfoot"

>>1036671
This is what I think now. I used to think it was like 50/50 whether or not it existed, but now with all the camera phones and ever-expanding urban areas, it's more like a 5% chance the thing exists. And if it does, it's most likely something beyond just a regular primate. I understand they're still finding new species of beetles in Borneo, but this is a 7' tall ape supposedly all over the US and Canada.

>>1036758
For sure, I'm marking timber in the U.P. this summer, but this is only my second season outdoors.

>>1037007
congratulations on that.

Its definitely a great experience, being in the woods all day everyday, hiking through places maybe no one has ever been before.
Some people it takes awhile to learn how to even walk in the woods. some people never can, they just trip over everything all day, fall down alot and cry because there's no trails and they have to climb over or crouch under things, push and fight your way through the underbrush to move along.
It's a skill all in itself, keeping an eye on where your walking, carefully but quickly choosing your steps, and also making sure you don't walk into a branch at eye level and get jabbed in the face or something.

but you can for sure see some cool stuff out there, keeps you in shape too, being able to crawl up and down mountains through the timber all day gives you good endurance.
After I got used to working in the woods, I was way better at orienteering, reading maps, and reading the terrain.

Using tools like axes, chainsaws and machetes is a special skill too. and when you get fatigued, it can be easy to lose control of your tool, have to be extra cautious during those times or you could hurt yourself or someone else.

But its all great work if your on with a good crew.

Bears standing up and in various shades of light, distances and concealment, look just like a large hairy humanoid.

I thought I did once but it was just your mom walking home from the store

The "Skunk Ape", as far as the one being from Florida, I think may have been confirmed as a real ape that escaped from a zoo or was a pet and it survived in the wild with the warm weather.

>>1038442
The paranormal thing actually has been more compelling with new technology. That show "Ghost Adventures" on Travel Channel has caught a lot of unexplainable stuff. And while the main dude is a tool, they try to remain objective unless it's really something unexplainable. And a couple years back, one of the 3 main guys left the show and they had their two sound and video guys fill in. Those AV guys were complete skeptics in the beginning and they have both totally changed.

I just think there's some stuff science hasn't explained yet. But Bigfoot as a normal animal in the US? Probably not.

I'd definitely agree that if bigfoot is a real thing, it's not a normal animal. There does seem to be some similarities between ape behavior and bigfoot behavior though. For instance, the Myakka skunk ape photos display a classic primate reaction to being surprised. This video sums it up pretty good if you have 20 minutes to spare.

Actually you couldn't take a pic of a fucking deer:
1. you notice it
2. grab camera/phone
3. target the deer in the bush
4. it's gone before you could take the pic
One need to creep on those animals with camera ready or bait them to keep stationary. But even for that you need to know where you can find your prey and in case of bigfoot you cannot know it can happen only by accident to come across one.

>>1039916
Human giants, not ape-men.

I have family that have encountered them in Utah, (one killed a bunch of sheep. Tore their legs off), but I've never encountered one myself. I've looked at the evidence, and while some is hoaxed, (Ivan Marx), some looks legit. The PG film looks legit: you can't fake joint positioning, and the proportions aren't right. Also, the Trent Vocalizations are grade A spoopy.

Sasquatch Yetis and UFOs were all killed off by the secret CIA plot to include camera technology in readily available mobile telephone devices.
